Prepare to be pissed.

Especially if it is the stock kit.

Good luck,
Randy

Can't you zip tie your bypass valve shut to help with emissions?

well if anyone cares to know... i finally passed!

set timing to 16 degree's and had to replace my O2 sensor... so, in all I passed for $350... good deal, huh? Considering it should pass smog without any problems as is, I got a great deal with the JRSC! Shoot, I love running only 14's while cocky *** guys in muscle cars f*ck around with me... I mean who wants to blow away guys like that... <note sarcasm>

well there is officially no good reason to buy a JRSC except if you like to have power and torque at low rpms and not much at top. great for old people, i'd think. Ya know... the ones with big 300hp V8's under the hood of their big cushy car, but they drive at maybe 40mph... i'm sure for the poorer old guys who get PT Cruisers and want the same kinda ease of driving, they should get a JRSC. Reliable, i guess... powerful? eh... smog legal? flip a coin, heads you pass, tails you fail... thats the odds of this CARB certified kit.

Yes these are the words of an angry man. Take it for all its worth if you plan on purchasing a JRSC, especially if its for smog purposes.
